Tap or click steps to mark as complete

1. In a slow cooker, pour in can of soup, onion soup mix, and can of cola. Stir until well incorporated (mixture will be fizzy.).

2. Place meat into slow cooker. Pour liquid over top and let fall to sides. It's okay if the meat is not completely covered.

3. Cover with lid and cook on high for 5 hours. If using vegetables, add them to the gravy at the beginning of the fifth hour. Stir gravy every hour or so, spooning over meat each time. You may need to turn the temperature down a little around the second hour of cooking.

I could not believe how good this was!I could not believe how good this was! What I did was I put it on low for 10 hours. I thickened the gravy up with a little cornstarch and water. After that I broke up the meat into small pieces and put it in the gravy. I put the meat and gravy mixture over mashed potatoes. This was a hit at my house! I will most definitely make again!
